...Egyptian military movements and preparedness-which Russia disastrously miscalculated in 1967. Egyptian officers complain that their Russian advisers are aloof and overbearing, work them too hard, and do not teach enough mobile warfare. According to the official slogan, Egyptian-Soviet friendship is "loftier than the Aswan Dam and more solid than the Pyramids." In fact, the relationship is pragmatic rather than cordial.

"Now," insists Clapton, "the songs stand up themselves, and what we're playing just complements the songs...

Those who expect the July low to stand as the bottom of the 1969 market predict that stock prices will move sideways for a long time until there are solid indications that inflation is being brought under control. Such prospects may be faintly reassuring to the average investor, but they do not promise much chance for speculators to recoup their mid-1969 losses quickly...
